Zhan Yan's old face inexplicably turned red. The pulse condition can be changed, but he really felt the real feeling.

The tenderness of last night still lingered in his bones.

He swallowed subconsciously and said, "Elders, it's not your turn to interfere in the affairs of this Marquis and his wife. However, in order to avoid future slander, I want to tell you that my wife and I are already a real couple!"

The clan elder's face turned completely pale. Could they actually consummate the marriage?

Mrs. Lu also spoke anxiously: "Impossible, Lord, she might have drugged you without you knowing it. In short, you must not trust her!"

Zhan Yan was too lazy to explain and immediately said in a stern voice, "Ms. Lu is deliberately slandering the Marquis' wife. Come, drag her out. Don't even think about setting foot in my Marquis' Mansion again!"

Before being dragged away, Mrs. Lu shouted, "My Lord, you've been deceived by her. Don't trust her. She has a grandfather who is the imperial physician. It would be easy for her to fool you!"

Zhan Yan suddenly said, "Stop!"

Mrs. Lu thought she had persuaded Zhan Yan. She stumbled over to him and said, "Zhan Yan, this woman is vicious. She stayed in our mansion just to avenge the humiliation she suffered from Zhan Yu marrying a wife and concubines. Do you think she really wants to be your wife?"

Zhan Yan's cold eyes fell on her, with a chilling and terrifying chill.

He said in a deep voice: "Shadow Soul, cut off her tongue to serve as a warning to others!"

The elder's expression suddenly changed. He quickly reminded him, "My Lord, she is your aunt. How could you treat her so harshly?"

Zhan Yan spoke word by word: "If anyone slanders or doubts Madam Hou again, this will be her fate!"

Yinghun immediately started to cut off Lu's tongue, but when he was halfway through, he suddenly paused.

Mrs. Lu rolled over in pain and screamed miserably.

Yinghun frowned and said, "I'm sorry, the knife is a little blunt, please be patient!"

How could Mrs. Lu bear it any longer? Even though someone held down her limbs, she kept twisting her body hard.

The elders felt their scalps tingling when they heard the screams.

But there is no way to stop it!

He knew Zhan Yan's temperament. Although he seemed to be cutting off Lu's tongue, he was actually dissatisfied with the clan.

This is a clear warning!

About an incense stick of time later, half of Lu's tongue was finally cut off.

She fainted from the pain, her body covered in blood, and looked horrible.

Zhan Yan said, "From now on, all matters concerning my mansion will no longer have anything to do with the clan. Fellow clan members, please take care of yourselves!"

Just one sentence made everyone's faces change drastically. They all asked: "My Lord, are you going to leave the clan?"

Zhan Yan replied calmly, "This Marquis does not want my wife to face any more doubts. If the clan has any complaints about her, what's wrong with this family leaving?"

Everyone was so shocked that they immediately pleaded, "My Lord, please think twice. A single tree cannot make a forest, and a single tree cannot make a boat. If you leave your clan, how can you gain a foothold in the capital?"

Zhan Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "When I achieved great success on the battlefield, could my clan give me any help?"

Everyone was stunned at once. Yes, Zhan Yan was the battlefield on my body, and he became the best man by relying on his own abilities.

It was not until now that they realized that it was not that Zhan Yan could not survive without the clan, but that the clan could not survive without Zhan Yan.

In the entire Zhan family, he is the only one with high position and power. Where do they get the courage and guts to interfere in the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion?

Everyone who figured out the key point was extremely depressed, feeling that they had been deceived by the elders.

The elders of the clan were even more regretful. Now that the lady's tongue had been cut off, she had lost the support of the people. I'm afraid that even the elders of the clan would not be able to succeed.

He didn't dare to ask for a fight with Yan again, and quickly dragged his unconscious wife away.

The rest of the people also took their leave and the entire mansion suddenly became quiet.

Zhan Yan turned to look at Lin Yiwan: "From now on, no one in the clan will impose rules on you or force a son onto your side!"

She stepped forward with a smile and took his arm: "Thank you for your protection, husband. While we still have some time, why don't you go shopping with me?"

Zhan Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Shopping? What do you want to buy?"

Lin Yiwan answered without hesitation, "We have so many good things in our house that I don't want to give them away as a gift to Wueryun. I'll just go to the shop outside and pick something out for her!"

Zhan Yan held her hand: "Okay, I'll accompany you!"

When the two arrived at the largest jewelry store in the capital, they saw a lot of carriages parked outside.

Zhan Yan couldn't help but frown: "Why don't we go to another place? There are too many people here. I'm afraid they'll squeeze you!"

Lin Yiwan gave him a reproachful look: "I'm not made of paper!"

As soon as she got off the carriage, she heard someone shouting from a distance, "Wanwan?"

Lin Yiwan raised her eyes and saw Sang Qiutang walking over with the maid.

She immediately pushed Zhan Yan and said, "My shopping companions are here. I don't need you anymore. Go find someplace to have tea!"

Zhan Yan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. This little girl didn't want him anymore as soon as she saw Sang Qiutang!

How cruel!

Seeing the two of them chattering together, he said, "I just have something to do, so I'll go back first. Remember to come home early!"

Lin Yiwan waved her hand without even raising her eyelids: "I know, you nagging housekeeper!"

After watching Zhan Yan disappear, Sang Qiutang asked Lin Yiwan with burning eyes, "The Marquis is so kind to you. I've heard he's a ruthless man with a cold face and a hard heart. Whenever he goes to court, he just stands there and there's no one within ten steps!"

Lin Yiwan's eyes widened in surprise: "No way?"

Sang Qiutang patted his chest and said, "You're the only one who's not afraid of him. When I saw him, I was so nervous that I broke out in a cold sweat!"

Lin Yiwan thought to herself that it seemed her Lord Marquis was not very friendly. After returning home, she would have to teach him to smile more so as not to make too many enemies.

As they talked, they walked into the jewelry store.

People were moving around in the hall, and Lin Yiwan was shocked. "Isn't the jewelry store clearing out its stock for free today?"

Sang Qiutang leaned close to her ear and whispered, "No, these are all wedding gifts for Princess Li. Most of the powerful families in the capital have received her invitations. Who would dare to neglect them?"

Lin Yiwan didn't say anything else and quickly dragged Sang Qiutang to the second floor.

At this moment, a sharp voice suddenly exploded in her ears, and she angrily scolded: "You bitch, who told you to act on your own? My father asked you to accompany me out, not to make decisions for me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped her hard.

Lin Yiwan leaned over to look and saw that the person being beaten was Su Zining, whose eyes were full of grievance.

And the one who took action was, needless to say, Cao Aiwen.

Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet!

Lin Yiwan shifted her gaze unnoticeably and said, "Qiu Tang, let's go to the third floor. I heard the jewelry styles there are more novel!"
